Get name of Cluster in event structure

[Dan10]

Hi,

I use an event structure. and I have 2 occurences of the same customized control. The customized control is a cluster of two controls.

Therefore I can monitor a value change of the controls in the event structure by looking at Occur1.Control1, Occur1.Control2, Occur2.Control1,  and Occur2.Control2.

Now I use Occur1.Control1 and Occur2.Control1 to trigger an event.

Depending on the triggering occurence I would like to change the value of Control2 in the same occurance.

I.e., if Occur1.Control1 triggers the event -> change Occur1.Control2; if Occur2.Control1 triggers the event -> change Occur2.Control2.

How do I find out if Occur1 or Occur2 triggered the event?

When I take the CtrlRef from the data node in the event structure, it just tells me Control1, but not Occur1.Control1 or Occur2.Control1.

Thanks,

Dan

Dan can you post some sample code?

Please see attached.

Use a "Owner" property from the ref you get back from the event structure (this event is configure to fire on changes to a control inside of the cluster) and use "to More Specific" node to cast the owner ref as a cluster. Then use the "label.Test" of THAT ref (which is now point at the cluster holding your control).

Notice how I used a placeholder reply so I could squeeze out a couple of minutes to the post time.

 

Thanks Bill!

You can use the Owner property to get at the cluster. You'll need to convert the refnum to a more specific class. See attached modification.

Use the property node for Owner, cast that to a control to get the label's text.

Ahh, the new knight just beat me!

Another option.  You could make two event cases.

Great. Looks good. What is the cleanest way to write to Control2 of the same Occur?
